MATURDAY, OCT. 14, 1942 THE M l C H T f: A V n'- - TT IV its THE MJCTTH2AN flATTV --a 1~U - PAGE k IVAE r Hillel To Have House-Warming At Mixer Today Foundation Will Introduce Home At Corner Of Hill, Haven Streets With Dance For New Students Hillel Foundation will combine a mixer for new students with a house .warming from 9:00 p. m. to midnight today in its new quarters. The Foundation has just moved to a large twenty-room house on the corner of Hill and Haven Streets and has completely refurnished the house. The dance will be held in the ball- room, a spacious room which will be used, later in the year, for such events as lectures and meetings. The new home also contains a completely equipped music room which is avail- able to students at all times. A library, play room and several study rooms and lounges are. also ready for use at all times, and stu- dents are welcome to avail themselves of these facilities. Grace Freudberg, '45, who is head of the social committee for the Foun- dation and chairman of the dance, has stressed the fact that the dance today is not a date affair. All unescor- ted girls are urged to attend. The informality of the football dec- orations and of the recorded music will provide all the guests with an' opportunity to become acquainted with the many advantages of Hillel's new headquarters. Other members of the committee, Charlotte Kauffman, '43, Edith Kohn, '45, Mildred Getzoff, '43, Bob Warner, '43, and Louis Warner, '45, promise that this, the Foundation's first formal appearance in its new home will be a real success. The chaperones for the affair will be Mr. and Mrs. Zwerdlin and Mr. and Mrs. Kaufman, all of whom are from Ann Arbor. Quality Value, F i t Mean Dress Value To Careful Buyers For most women shopping tripsI are becoming fewer and farther be- tween, for spare time and money are now being given 100% to the war effort. However, there comes a time1 when everyone needs a new dress or1 suit, and the inevitable tour of local shops begins. When you start out to buy clothes, it is important to make thoughtful and careful choices, for as likely asa not, they will have to last for many a month. The best dress to have in1 your wardrobe is one that you will wear and enjoy the most.l The first keynote to a "good buy" is not p5rice but simplicity. However, it's possible to be over-cautious and conservative to the dull point. Moneyt can't be put on both good material and extra trinkets, so if you have a limited income, the quality is by far most important. The next criterion of a good buy is whether or not it fits well. If youI are sure a dress really "does some-I thing" for your face and figure it is worth buying. Moreover, the fit at the shoulder and waistline must be good. However, an investment in goodt alterations is often profitable.. If the fit of your dress is all right, it is wise to look at the seams ands .__. . i Red Cross Competition Opens For War Activity Photographs Students are eligible to help.secure pictures for the war program by com- peting in the American Red Crossl photographic contest. The contestl opened October 1, and will close De- cember 31, 1942. There are three monthly contests. The first closes at midnight October 31. At the end of each monthly con- test, the American Red Cross will award 36 prizes in United States War Savings Bonds for the prize-winning pictures. May Compete In Finals At the close of the entire contest, J all pictures winning monthly first, second, and third prizes and 'special merit awards will automatically be entered in the grand finals to com- pete for additional prizes. The Pho- tographic Society of America and other friends of the 'Red Cross are. donating war bonds totaling $5,125 maturity value for prizes. The Red Cross needs newsworthy pictures portraying its activities and' artistic photographs symbolizing its: spirit. For this reason they are offer- ing this opportunity to amateur and professional photographers in the armed service or in civilian life to. put their cameras to work for the war effort. - Students May Compete The contest is open to anyone, in- cluding University students, except salaried employees of the American' Red Cross or of any Red Cross chap- ter. Entrants may submit as many pictures as desired. All pictures entered in the contest must portray an activity of the Amer- Martha Cook Has Many New Girls ican Red Cross on the home front, in the camps, on the sea, or in foreign lands; or, they may be symbolic of the American Red Cross. Army and Navy restrictions on pictures must be observed. Any Film Accepted Pictures may be made on any type of film, but must not be made on glass plate negatives. No print or enlargement more than ten inches in the longest dimension will be accept- ed. Prints should be unmounted and should be mailed flat. All pictures will be judged on their effectiveness in interpreting Red Cross activities. Photographic excel- lence will not be the major deciding factor in determining prize winners. List Home Services. Some of the home front American Red Cross services which offer picture possibilities for students are: the blood donor program, home service for the armed forces, disaster pre- paredness and relief, nursing service, first aid, water safety and accident prevention, American Junior Red Cross, volunteer special services in- cluding staff assistance, volunteer nurse's aide corps, hospital and rec- reational corps, canteen corps, motor corps, and production corps. Information regarding these and other activities may be obtained from the local chapter of the American Red Cross.

According to Mrs. Leona Diekema, social director, there is an unusual numnber of new girls. During this, their twenty-fourth initiation, seven- ty-one new residents will be welcomed by the fifty-three old members. Although many of the usual social activities of the house have been cur- tailed because of the war situation, this ceremony is one of the customs that will continue to be observed. Ruth Ellen Thomas, '43, chairman, Virginia, Capron, '43, house president, Miss Sarah Rowe, house director, and Mrs. Diekema will assist in the cere- mony. During the program, Jane Morley, '43, will sing a solo, accom- panied by Phyllis Munger, '43. Martha Cook's afternoon teas will be held only during the winter months "for the duration" and the social committee is giving ten per cent of its intake at all social functions to the war effort. make sure they are generous. Bound or overcast armholes and small, nice stitching also add to the wearing value of any garment. Hand-made buttonholes make a dress keep its neat appearance for a longer period of time. Last, but not least, it is wise to watch labels. Virgin wool is a posi- tive good buy, but many new materi- als are now on the market which will wear just as well and be just as smart. War industries need university- trained women. College students who may be feeling that they are wasting time at school while their contempor- aries are filling shells and welding planes should realize that their edu- cation can fit them for many vital war positions. These jobs which add experience to a prerequisite background of sound training are not likely to have their usefulness end with the war. One of the wisest things a war career-minded woman can do just now is to concen- trate on scientific studies since the demand for specialists in the many scientific aspects of war industry is tremendous. By the end of 1943 7,- 000,000 women must be added to the staffs of war production plants if the arming of the country is to continue unimpeded. Preparation Makes Efficiency The better a woman's preparation for such work the more efficiently can she help in this enormous effort. Women trained in chemistry to any extent are much needed in munitions factories which have already em- ployed many women chemists and wish for more. Duties of the woman For an extra dash to last year's suit, hunt for a shiny seal, deer, or a lounging dachshund to pin on your lapel. You're sure to find one that striktes your fancy for a minimum price. They come in gray or dappled brown plastic which adds an indi- vidual touch.-, --l a chemist in a munitions plant consist chiefly of analysis with some com- pounding, spot-testing, research on new products and tabulation. Pay runs from $1500 to $2160 for most workers, but those with M.A. or Ph.D. degrees receive $3400 to $6000. Physicists with training in research will also find good openings in war industry. They are needed for such essential work as aircraft research. making computations for ordnance and shipbuilding engineers and doing research on gases and projectiles. Pay is from $1500 to $5000. Opportunities In Math Mathematicans have a variety of opportunities. One year of college math equips a woman to be an engin- eering aide. Math majors can become statisticians and well-salaried re- search workers. In this field pay runs from $1400 to $5000. Statistical work, testing programs and figure work for construction engineers are among the duties of the wartime mathematical worker. Metallurgy presents possible em- ployment to women with engineering degrees. Pay averages around $1800. Metallurgists conduct tests and assist steel-mill smelter chemists. Electrical research workers can be employed by appliance manufactur- ers and electrical equipment testing laboratories. Need For Doctors Women doctors have never been more needed than now when many male physicians must leave civilian posts to attend to the need of the armed forces. They can obtan hospi- tal residencies with $50 a month pay or be contract surgeons at $2500 a year. The way for a woman to obtain one of these positions is to register with the National Roster of Scientific and Specialized Personnel in Washington. She should also write to any firm which may be located near her place of residence to see what positions are available. Her qualifications before applying for work should be a college degree with a background of mathe- matics, dexterity in laboratory tech- nique, patience, accuracy and keen interest in the field she has selected. For construction work she must have a high production rate and in any case she needs dependable health and a steady nervous system. War work for women combines the' fulfillment of the urge to use one's talents in the line of patriotic duty and the practical advantages of bet- ter-than-usual starting salaries in more available positions than ever before. Women who take up careers in war production will be not only materiallyhelping themselves but also freeing men for fighting. Never has there been more important and valuable work for the scientifically- trained woman. WAA Names Gaskell League House Head At a meeting of the WAA Board held at 4 p. m. yesterday at the W.A.B., Jean Gaskill, '45, was ap- pointed head of the league houses. She is now living at Mrs. Maddy's house and will represent the league houses on the Assembly Board as well as on the W.A.A. Board. The Ann Arbor independent wom- en also formed a volley ball team which they will enter in the tourna- ment on Oct. 12. a< Another "must" in every girl's wardrobe is a good, practical two- piece suit such as the one shown here. Its trim, simple lines lend a neat, slenderizing appearance to any lassie that might chance to slip it on. The suit can be dressed up by simply adding a flashy lapel pin or donning a soft felt hat as seen above. As an outfit for more sporty wear a get-up of this kind can hardly be outdone. Casual sweaters or frilly blouses may be worn equal- ly well with this all-round suit. The comparatively narrow skirt with its one lone pleat down the center of the front is typical of wartime styles. The rich brown beaver coat draped carelessly over the fitted suit is especially smart with its three-quarter length. A wrap of this sort not only blends in well with other colors but also looks chic with all types of garb. It's a smart looking outfit at any time and place. 4 E f i r CHURCH DIRECTORY No They're Not Waiting ToHove Their Pictures Token! But it is time to have YOUR Ensian picture done.
